Law & Ethics - July 2006

I never received any copies of the conditions of probation that my PO says I violated. I did not know what the conditions violated were until 2 mins before the revocation hearing. I also was not contacted by my court appointed attorney until 2mins before the hearing. I never got a chance to confer with attorney. My PO gave the attorney my old address, and no phone number. when the attorney came out of judges chambers I was told that if I continued to a hearing the judge would give me 2 years in prison, or I could accept 6 months in halfway house right now. I was given 2 mins to make this decision. I chose the lesser of the two evils, feeling like I had no choice. I was never given an opportunity to speak on my behalf or anything. I since then have hire an attorney who put in a motion for new hearing. That was a month ago. Do I have a case against the federal po or anyone. I have been completely blind sided hear. And, my life has been taken from me. It is costing me alot.

I'm aware that it costs more to have children, but having children is a choice. Should I, a childless tax payer for 18 years, pay more in taxes than someone who has children?

They have lied to me to get her work number ("there's a family emergency, this is her cousin"). They are abusive on the answering machine, and I can only assume when talking to her in person as well ("you are such a liar Miss _______, you really need to learn how to deal with your money") ("People like you shouldn't be taking care of children")
They call 2-3 times every day. We can't answer the phone anymore
I've told them to stop calling because she's away on vacation (true) but they continue to call 2-3 times each day.

Surely this form of harrassment is not legal. Is there any steps we can take to stop this (besides the obvious, paying them... she is not capable at this moment of doing so).

Some people say it destroys the sanctity of marriage, but hasn't divorce and adultery already done that?

Others state it is a sin, but the Bible has only four implied admonishments against homosexuality and over 350 admonishments against heterosexuality. If marriage is a sin, then in theory the gay couple just has to find "God" and ask for forgiveness for their sins to get into heaven.

Then there is the argument that gays should have the rights of a married couple, but does not violate equal rights and the separation of church and state?

Who does gay marriage really hurt? The economy could definitely benefit from the money used and circulated for gay marriages?

I would like to know as many arguments supporting gay marriage as possible.

Just as the question is alluding to. If a guy robs you, with a gun or other deadly weapon, and demands you hand him your purse, and he empties the contents out, and tells you to take the contents, but only wants the purse itself, would you think that would be twilight zone strange? What would you say or do?

GWB talks about bringing democracy to the Middle East and the world, and speaks proudly about the US being the most free and democratic nation in the world. Yet he has used his personal power of veto to overturn a bill, passed by the (elected!) Senate by due democratic process, and supported by a majority of the electorate. His decision to do so is based on his own (subjective) moral values.

Is this an act worthy of the leader of "the greatest democracy in the world"? Or is it an act more typical of a dictator, who ignores the will of the people and the advice of experts in favour of his own (arguably extreme) values?
